Bristol Township police responded to an attack in which they allege 19-year-old Croydon Donald Meyer used a baseball bat to destroy part of the woman’s car.
According to the probable cause affidavit, the victim was in a car which belonged to her aunt with some friends when she received and answered phone calls from a blocked number.

The person on the other end of the phone call turned out to be the victim’s ex-boyfriend, Donald Meyer, said police documents.
According to court papers, Meyer wanted to know where the group was so they could fight. The victim allowed her friend to answer the phone on the next attempt, where Meyer stated that he had “found them,” said the probable cause affidavit.
The group left the area they were at and proceeded to drive down Newportville Road, when they noticed they were being followed by a black Ford Explorer and a yellow sports car, said official documents.

According to court documents, the driver of the Explorer began throwing items at the car with the group of victims in it. After a quick turn on to Ford Road, the car was stopped at a red light when the Explorer pulled up beside them and the yellow sports car pulled up behind them.
The victim saw Meyer approaching with a baseball bat in hand, according to court papers.

Meyer used the bat to break out the rear window of the vehicle operated by the victim and also hit the front passenger window, causing it to break into a “web-like” pattern, said the probable cause affidavit.
As soon as traffic freed up, the group of victims moved to a nearby Hess gas station and contacted the police, police said.
According to the probable cause affidavit, Meyer intended to cause damage to the vehicle, and caused up to, but not excess of $1,000 damage.
